Video Game Reviews of Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light
Customer Review: tedium
Summary: 2 Stars
I ADORE RPGs but i absolutely HATE this one!! the battle system has you waiting 20sec or more for the moon to make a full rotation before you attack. Once you destroy and enemy on the 'map' it comes right back, so you must clear out of the area. While you are accessing your menu, you can be attacked. Your weapons break after a couple of battles, so you have to constantly by more materials to make them. You need materials to make everything, or you buy them at super high prices from the store. So if the enemy isn't dropping enough items, then you can't make weapons/potions you need b/c you won't have all the components. While crafting, the character can fail, then you lose materials. Worst of all you spend most of the time running back and forth to the same places. From sepnia Forest back to Jade city, thats like 3~4 min running on the map to get back and waiting for screens to load. The maps are TERRIBLE. While the map is popped up, it covers most of your screen and you can't see where you're going.
But wait, the MOST AWFUL THING ABOUT THIS GAME is lack of save points!!!! there are hardly any, so if you are in a dungeon *in this game, places like the lunar tower* you'd have to go back quite a few screens to get to a save point then battle your way back to where you were b4 if you get tired of playing or want to save before boss fight.
finally to nitpick, the japanese language part of the game, the main character's name is Shane, but the english text is calling him lance.
the lack of save points, the shoddy and extremely slow battle system, constantly breaking weapons....This game pisses me off on so many levels.
i REALLY wish i never bought this game. Unless you are extremely bored with a whole lot of time on your hands and you don't mind running back and forth to the same towns over and over and over, DON'T waste you time/money of this load of crap game.
